Friday: boots

Cheryl and I have been trying to find boots for Isaac (size 7).  Seems like it should be a simple thing, seeing as how we're in Michigan.  But no.

We stopped at the children's store downtown.  They had tons of girls boots, but only two styles of boys...it is was more of a work boot than a snow boot.  We stopped at several shoe places downtown, but they had all stopped carrying kids' shoes.

Today we went to Kohls...again, several girls boots.  There were two boys boots, but one was very ugly.  The nice one only had size 10.  We went to JCPennys.  They had some nice ones, but the smallest were size 11.   (They also had several girl boots.) We walked across the mall to Yonkers and were about to give up hope of finding any in the mall when we spotted a winter rack.  They had some!  And they were small!

I'll admit...I'm really surprised that it was so hard to find boots.  (I did hear there are some at Meijer, and we didn't check Target).  But hopefully it will snow this weekend now. :D
